it is pretty fast in Program mode, but incredibly slow in the mode that takes a 4 second video before taking the still picture. Avoid that mode like the plague.

I've been able to get stills using my video editing software. The images are good, not great, but I think that is normal for capturing stills. I believe the camera will take stills but I haven't tried it.

Yes you can. Because of the small amount of ram it may need to reload often. Some of my video seemed to run in slow motion.

In my opinion, when using the video function there is a delay. there may be a slight delay in picture mode but not more than any other camera I have used. hope this helps!

The issue of still images or video depends on the software you use. I use an application called IRIS which gives me video clips. I have not tested any software package3d with the camera.

From my experience, yes. It worked great in varied lighting situations. The "iA" mode on the camera makes taking videos very easy.

Yes you can snap stills during video capture. The GF5 also has the capability to pull screenshots from video during review.

When shooting videos, how do I shoot still photos at the same time (apparently older M1+Mii could do this)?

You can take video, stills & stills during video...my pics are always clear.

Yes, it can be used to trigger the video function. You will need to set your camera to video mode, enable wireless remote functionality, and set the remote to the "2" switch. For still shots while video is being taken, push the switch to the bottom on the remote to begin getting still shots.

Yes, it can take still photos, it can also take a photograph on an interval timer, good for time-lapse (software would be needed to create a video from the photos). If you have the remote it can be used as a remote trigger for photos and video recording.

When I bought my camera, I checked for this function. It was not possible to take a still photo while also taking movies. I suppose it is possible (although probably not likely) that there has been a 'firmware' update, and now you can, but it could not be done when I bought mine.

It takes video and you can capture still photos while you are shooting video.

With this Sony model you cannot take a still photo while shooting video. On some previous models you could. Sony took that feature away on this one - and I was unhappy to find that out (after I bought the camera)
